Bulked Up Max Holloway Reveals Behind-The-Scenes Training For Justin Gaethje | Ep 2

People do forget how Max was pressing and overwhelming Poirier in rounds 3 and 4 until that knee to the face. And how he ran straight to the centre to duke out with Poirier in round 5. Cardio will never be an issue and if he's hitting harder, this could mean war.

Dude his strikes were doing nothing to Dustin. He cut his career even shorter with this one.

[@in33d2floss7]

Dustin literally said max hurt him

[@Gojimaru]

@@in33d2floss7 He was being courteous. Watch the fight again. Max was getting rocked with every punch. He barely survived while he still had some chin. Justin is going to end his career.

[@TheRulersBack18]

i am PRAYING that his chin is still amazing. ppl really think that second poirier fight went differently than it did, he had poirier hurt in that fight. some of the shots he took from allen would've dropped other 145ers, i'm just hoping he doesn't take as many clean shots against gaethje

[@eddiehauser6661]

Max reminds me of Robert Whittaker in terms of what his trainer was saying where people have started to talk about them like they're old because they've been around forever, but they're both still in their early 30s which is often the prime of a fighters career. Ya, they've both had a lot of fights and wars, and damage can catch up to you, but they're not old by any means

[@jmz2144]

Irony is Gaethje has taken more damage, been dropped and TKO'd multiple times, and he's 3 years older at 35

[@chrispee5786]

Idk why they say the early 30's is their prime, but the moment they hit 36 all of the sudden , theyre old lol. The way i see it is there is a prime for their body/athleticism. And a prime for their fight iq etc but they barely happen at the same time. By the time they get the knowledge. Theyre already beat up
